Home atlas since far away away flowersTender roses meek serenity blowing slow Just there by garden stood rose for showersBeside a narrow stream flow Doze the trees which went so soft by musicParadise atlas just this home Of snowy look falling fruits from figs So fed we and gave her a calm namePeace and love and share love of treesThen at night when sleep from mountain dew We dreamed not of better home than of trees Which own long tasting dewSome day soon came the sun But retires as the frozen breeze drive it awayFast folded her length away she ran Till date time came and took us awayWe could neither bear this departure Or remain where our days were no more Took for me memorial precious stones Away with inscription of love and peaceIn love the way we feltLive and rise just in that spotTrace the stars as long as the memorial could tellFar away from that spotShadow deep spots of future sleepWhere to be call our memories Until this was through to keepNeed arise moment for trialAbide no more to weep
